The 2026 college football season continues to move forward as Week 10 of the season concluded with eight Big Ten Conference games being played.

The No. 14 USC Trojans and No. 5 Indiana Hoosiers had the week off, but the 16 other Big Ten teams put on a show with a couple shocking outcomes and three games that were decided by single digits. Here's the Big Ten Roundup for Week 10 of the 2026 college football season.

Friday: 24-13 Illinois vs Nebraska

Illinois' six-foot-one receiver Collin Dixon to help them take down the Cornhuskers. The senior wideout had eight receptions for 139 receiving yards and two touchdowns. Dixon's first touchdown tied the game in the second quarter and his second score came in the fourth to put the game nearly out of reach for Nebraska.

Saturday: 34-20 UCLA vs Minnesota

The Bruins were locked in a defensive battle with Minnesota until the fourth quarter. UCLA's senior signal caller Ty Dieffenbach would score a one-play, 75-yard touchdown to senior wide receiver Aiden Mizell twice. Those were Mizell's only receptions of the game, but 150 receiving yards and two touchdowns is nothing to complain about. The Bruins continue to show how dominate they can be and they can change the game in an instant.

Saturday: 41-28 Oregon vs Ohio State

The Ducks shocked the Buckeyes with a massive win for Oregon in a game that featured two backup quarterbacks that threw over 40 times. After Ohio State scored 14 unanswered points in the first quarter, Oregon's offense responded. The Ducks put up 10-points, intercepted freshman signal caller Luke Fahey and then claimed another touchdown for the lead. Oregon would then go on to score 21 points in the second half before their defense would allow Ohio State to add more points to the scoreboard.

Saturday: 24-10 Iowa vs Northwestern

The Hawkeyes pummel the Wildcats with Northwestern being held scoreless in the first half of the game. Northwestern was eventually able to find the endzone in the fourth quarter, but by that time, Iowa had scored 24-points. Iowa's senior quarterback Hank Brown had thrown and run for touchdown, but the only touchdown the Hawkeyes scored in the second half was a 96-yard kick return by sophomore running back Braeden Jackson in the third quarter.

Saturday: 34-29 Maryland vs Purdue

The Boilermakers found themselves in a shootout yet again. After a quiet first quarter, the Terrapin's offense erupted until it finally turned into a massive 21-point third quarter that put Maryland in the driver's seat. Purdue's offense attempted to strike back, but they came up just short with a sack ending their drive and the game.

Saturday: 28-25 Penn State vs Washington

The Huskies put up a fight, but they weren't able to overcome giving up 28 points in the first half of the game. Washington managed a second-half shutout and their offense woke up, but they came up just short as Penn State used up nearly eight minutes to end the game.

Saturday: 31-10 Wisconsin vs Rutgers

The Badgers bounced back with freshman signal caller Ryan Hopkins remaining under center and completing 75 percent of his passes for 241 passing yards and three touchdowns. Wisconsin's defense also had themselves a day with a second-half shutout to help the Badgers secure the blowout.

Saturday: 15-6 Michigan State vs Michigan

The Spartans took down the Wolverines without scoring a single touchdown. Instead, Michigan State decided to ride the leg of senior kicker Liam Boyd and their defense. Boyd made all five of his attempts. By the time Michigan was able to carve their way through the Spartans defense, there were less than two minutes of gametime left.
